Recommendation (draft - May 2007)

Work Plan (May 2007) - The MRIP Executive Steering Committee (ESC) charged the Operations Team with prioritizing recommendations for improving recreational fishing data collection programs, as well as developing a work plan to address the resulting recommendations. Based on the above inputs, as well as input from informal discussions with data managers, stock assessment scientists, and the fishing public, the Operations Team developed a list of general cross-cutting priorities to guide decision making and project planning within each of six regions; Western Pacific, Alaska, Pacific Coast, Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean, and Atlantic Coast. This plan describes an approach to address the recommendations to improve marine recreational fishing data collection programs.
